P.S.: sharpening the saw.

Electron, Node.js and their friends.

Trying to put some changes into the KeeWeb app (I even forked it), I started the WebStorm editor and then recognized that I have almost started to shave another Yak, which is in this case an electron framework, node.js and so on in the direction of JavaScript.

But the enemy is recognized and defeated! Screw it.

Recalling the beautiful article from Jeff Atwood which is called "Sharpening the Saw", I think of renaming the blog to reflect the idea that every Yak Shaving can be or can be not sharpening the saw in the context of the aforementioned article.

Yak Shaving #0: Visual regexps on steroids.

Being fed up with crazy syntax of RegExes in Emacs, I have found a replacement for it. Or I'd rather say "enhancement". It is called visual-regexp-steroids and looks so cool on screenshots, just check it out.
Exactly what Emacs should've had from the beginning. And guess what? It does not work for whatever reason. Either it is Helm interfering with it or Python is not found as expected (but it is available in the system). I don't know, therefore I'm doomed to guess wildly. Emacs, I hate you. The more I look at you the more you look like a Yak. Wait a minute, isn't it what Stallman meant choosing the Emacs symbol (the wildebeest)?

And I'm shaving, shaving...

P.S.: My emacs configuration.
